Did you ever consider the title of the last patch... "Cold War", to me that is probably a pretty good indication of what dreadnaughts are.
Dreadnaughts are instant I win buttons in alliance vs alliance wars.. if 10 dreadnaughts jump in on your main base of operations in 0.0 and you dont have dreadnaughts to counter them.... well then you can start looking for a new home.
Building 10 dreadnaughts on one set of component bpo's (and 3 dread bpo's) will take approximately 50 days from start to finish. By the time you finish and go back to retake your space, the enemy will have built another 10 and so on.
So... get behind in the dreadnaught building race at your own peril, alliances that havent already built dreadnaughts are in immidiate danger of being obliterated.
alts 4tw (dont wanna say which alliance im in)... but we are not behind on this >:)

i dont think Dreads will be "win buttons". However, they will make taking a station MUCH easier imo.
Imagine trying to retake your conqurable station after the enemy have put up 2 large military POS's in your main system and them having dreads in that system to mess your forces up when you attack the POS's... not a pretty picture if you ask me

Cold War is defined as:
A cold war is a war with no direct fighting between the countries involved.
A cold war often involves countries with different ideologies (e.g. USA capitalist and USSR communist).
A war of mistrust, spying, propaganda and deception.
Do you remember the arms race part of the cold war ?..... thats what im talking of

You also need Advanced weapon upgrades lvl 5 as a prereq to use siege mode, you need jump drive lvl 5 to get access to the skill that increases jump range... so its quite a big job in terms of training. Approx 85 days (with decent attributes and implants) provided you have all the pre patch skills trained (jump drive at lvl 3).
